<\/a><\/p>\nWe tried two restaurants that weekend. The second night we tried \u201cCuisine et dependences\u201d, a quieter place with a nice soothing d\u00e9cor and large windows that offer an endless spectacle of street activities\u2026 In both places, the service seemed to peeter out and it took a long time to get the bill. I must say that neither place had desserts that impressed us\u2026<\/p>\n As usual we visited a museum also. This time we caught the Warhol exhibit at the Museum of fine arts\u2026I am glad we had a guide to explain it\u2026. But although I know more about the man and his art now\u2026. I still have my doubts about the artistic value of it all\u2026granted he was an innovator\u2026but\u2026that does not necessarily make his work\u2026a masterpiece\u2026or maybe it is just over my head\u2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have not been good at keeping up with my writing, but am now trying to catch up\u2026 On Halloween weekend I had my bi-yearly visit with a good friend […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2001","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events","category-food"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2001","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2001"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2001\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2013,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2001\/revisions\/2013"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2001"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2001"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyingplates.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2001"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a>

\nThe first one: Tapeo, offers, as the name suggests, a variety of dishes in small portions, We gave the chef carte blanche and just gave them an idea of how much we were willing to spend\u2026which got us: a sardine salad composed of sardines, fennel, caviar and croutons. Next course was an octopus salad with cocktail tomatoes, tiny green beans, mandarin oranges. Third course was scallops with lardons (bacon) that were to die for! The last savory course was skate topped with tomato juice, radicchio and sour cream and chorizo with tomato sauce. Dessert was forgettable – dull churros and some sort of date pudding thing.
\nEverything was tasty\u2026but the restaurant is much too noisy to be pleasant\u2026I would say they are victims of their success\u2026<\/p>\n
\nFor the first course my friend tried chicken mousse with aragula salad with a fig\/port sauce and I had scallops served in the shell. For the main course she had the duck breast with pommes dauphines, tiny onions and mushrooms, and I chose the osso bucco, which was lovely. The desserts she had was a sabl\u00e9 with apples and caramel and I had a daquoise with bananas.<\/p>\n
